The MIRS team discusses what could be the most competitive primaries, as well as who could be the most vulnerable incumbents, in the 2024 state House elections. More than 100 state representatives are running for reelection, and more than 32 percent of them are facing primary challengers (1:10).
Additionally, state Sen. Veronica Klinefelt, an Eastpointe Democrat, joins today's episode to discuss her legislation to explicitly outlaw the sexual abuse and assault of dead bodies in Michigan – a prohibition that does not currently exist (28:35).
Executive Director Robert McCann of the K-12 Alliance of Michigan explains why school districts want legislators to stay on top of paying down retirement debt for public school employees. Robert explains how districts and individual educators have their own obligations to the debt, which he would like to see the state work toward alleviating (46:35).
